Great support at campus level and opportunities for growth and advancement, but burnout is real - ELAR Teacher IDEA Public Schools Employee Review

Pros

Support from campus APIs is phenomenal. Opportunities for stipends and bonuses through TCP and TIA

Cons

"Too many chiefs"-- you know the saying. Minimum grades are required so it is hard to retain students who need retention since grades show they are competent. And since student literacy rates are low this impacts the teacher's ability to advance in TIA and TCP (through the district]. Lesson plan expectations are sometimes seemingly impossible and are very tedious which leads to burnout. Curriculum change is coming so hopefully this will help.

Pros

The organization is one that is so easy to get behind, and that gets behind their people. Our staffing team is one of the best out there.

Cons

Working in the education world is tough, as you’re normally as a rule trying to do more with less.

Pros

Teachers had a positive attitude toward each other and worked as a team. There is extensive training in classroom management at the beginning of the year and clear consequences for students.

Cons

When you interact with HR, you are reminded that you are just a number. They do not treat you as a valuable employee. You are asked to send your questions to emails, and you're not able to get someone on the phone. Their communication is confusing and they are not helpful.
